Generalized linear mixed models provide a flexible framework for modeling a range of data,
although with non-Gaussian response variables the likelihood cannot be obtained in closed …

Structural equation models provide a general statistical modelling technique for estimating
and testing relationships among variables. Such relationships are often not revealed by …

Biology is characterized by complex interactions between phenotypes, such as recursive
and simultaneous relationships between substrates and enzymes in biochemical systems …

Heritability of and genetic correlations among silent heat (SH), cystic ovaries (CO), metritis
(MET), and retained placenta (RP) were inferred. These traits were chosen because they are …

Multiple-trait random regression animal models with simultaneous and recursive links
between phenotypes for milk yield and somatic cell score (SCS) on the same test day were …

Background The use of structural equation models for the analysis of recursive and
simultaneous relationships between phenotypes has become more popular recently. The …

Quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping often results in data on a number of traits that have well-
established causal relationships. Many multi-trait QTL mapping methods that account for the …

Finite mixture, multiple-trait, random regression animal models with recursive links between
phenotypes for milk yield and somatic cell score (SCS) on the same test-day were applied to …

We developed and implemented change-point recursive models and compared them with a
linear recursive model and a standard mixed model (SMM), in the scope of the relationship …

Modelos de equações estruturais (MEEs) podem ser utilizados para estudar
relacionamentos de recursividade e feedback em análise multivariada. O número de …
